Meditations - Antoninus Marcus Aurelius

A deluxe special edition of the ancient classic written by the Roman Emperor known as "The Philosopher" Meditations is a series of personal journals written by Marcus Aurelius, Emperor of Rome from 169 to 180 AD. The last of the "Five Good Emperors," he was the most powerful and influential man in the Western world at the time. Marcus was one of the leaders of Stoicism, a philosophy of personal ethics which sought resilience and virtue through personal action and responsibility. Stoicism, viewed as a foundation of modern self-help, has inspired many personal development and psychotherapy approaches through to the present day. Meditations is perhaps the most important source of our modern understanding of Stoic philosophy. Its twelve books chronicle different stages of Marcus Aurelius’ life and ideas. Although he ruled during the Pax Romana, the age of relative peace and stability throughout the empire, his reign was marked by near-constant military conflict and a devastating plague which killed upwards of five million people. Aurelius' writings give modern readers an unprecedented look into the "spiritual exercises" which helped him through his tumultuous life and strengthened his patience, empathy, generosity, self-knowledge and emotional health.

Meditations - Antoninus Marcus Aurelius

''Do not act as if you had ten thousand years to live ... while you have life in you, while you still can, make yourself good.''The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) is a private notebook of philosophical reflections, written by a Roman emperor probably on military campaign in Germany. In short, highly charged comments, Marcus draws on Stoic philosophy to confront challenges that he felt acutely, but which are also shared by all human beings - the looming presence of death, making sense of one''s social role and projects, the moral significance of the universe. They bring us closer to the personality of the emperor, who is often disillusioned with his own status and with human activities in general; they are both an historical document and a remarkable spiritual diary.This translation by Robin Hard brings out the eloquence and universality of Marcus'' thoughts. The introduction and notes by Christopher Gill place the Meditations firmly in the ancient philosophical context.

The "Meditations" of Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius are a readable exposition of the system of metaphysics known as stoicism. Stoics maintained that by putting aside great passions, unjust thoughts and indulgence, man could acquire virtue and live at one with nature.

Meditations - Antoninus Marcus Aurelius

One of the world''s most famous and influential books, Meditations, by the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius (A.D. 121–180), incorporates the stoic precepts he used to cope with his life as a warrior and administrator of an empire. Ascending to the imperial throne in A.D. 161, Aurelius found his reign beset by natural disasters and war. In the wake of these challenges, he set down a series of private reflections, outlining a philosophy of commitment to virtue above pleasure and tranquility above happiness.Reflecting the emperor''s own noble and self-sacrificing code of conduct, this eloquent and moving work draws and enriches the tradition of Stoicism, which stressed the search for inner peace and ethical certainty in an apparently chaotic world. Serenity was to be achieved by emulating in one''s personal conduct the underlying orderliness and lawfulness of nature. And in the face of inevitable pain, loss, and death — the suffering at the core of life — Aurelius counsels stoic detachment from the things that are beyond one''s control and a focus on one''s own will and perception.Presented here in a specially modernized version of the classic George Long translation, this updated and revised edition is easily accessible to contemporary readers.

Po Athénách - Antoninus Marcus Aurelius, Aulus Gellius

"Krátké druhé století", tedy éra pěti "dobrých císařů" od Nervy po Marka Aurelia (96-180), představuje cosi jako římský biedermeier. Říše je "hotova" a stabilizována, kultura se obrací k soukromému životu a k idealizované minulosti. Athény, dávno politicky bezvýznamné, se stávají hlavním městem vzdělanosti, antickým Oxfordem. Římští žáci jezdí za řeckými profesory. Kultura těchto žáků a profesorů, "druhá sofistika", nevytváří velké filosofické koncepty. Zabývá se praktickou etikou, vzpomínáním na zlatý věk Athén - a jazykem a stylem. Svazek přináší dvojí literární svědectví o této epoše. První je výbor z Attických nocí Aula Gellia, jednoho z oněch římských studentů. Gellius si vypisuje poznatky o klasické kultuře i zážitky ze života akademického i studentského. Zobrazuje komunitu, která se nestará o "velké dějiny", ale raduje se z poznávání a ze čtení starých textů. Gelliův obraz této athénské komunity ovlivnil pak evropský humanismus, zvláště éru Erasmovu a Rabelaisovu, důvěřující v sílu literárního vzdělání přivést lidstvo na lepší cesty. Druhým svědectvím je výbor z listů mladičkého prince Marka Aurelia, který má daleko do pozdějšího stoického myslitele Hovorů k sobě.

Hovory k sobě - Antoninus Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius (121-180) je neobvyklým zjevem ve starověkém písemnictví. Proslul jako římský císař (161-180) a zároveň filozof. Vládl ve velmi neklidné, krizové době, plné válečných konfliktů s barbarskými kmeny, jež útočily na římskou moc. Při výpravě na sever proti Markomanům se r. 179 dostal až na území dnešního Slovenska do oblasti Trenčína. Byl velmi vzdělán a literárně činný. Jeho filozofickou orientaci významně ovlivnilo studium děl stoika Epiktéta. Dochovala se od něj mj. latinsky psaná korespondence, ale největšího ohlasu dosáhl soubor jeho řecky psaných krátkých filozofických úvah a poznámek, jež si pořizoval během válečných výprav. Byly nazvány Ta eis heauton (?? ??? ??????), česky Hovory k sobě. V nich osobitým způsobem shrnul své myšlenky o lidském údělu a smyslu existence, s maximálním důrazem na etické otázky. Zdůrazňuje v nich pomíjivost lidského bytí, neustálou změnu, vznik a zánik, a odvolává se na princip přirozenosti, na předurčenost všech živých bytostí a jejich rovnost. Hovory k sobě patří k nejúspěšnějším titulům Antické knihovny, v klasickém překladu Rudolfa Kuthana zde vycházejí již potřetí.

The Cambridge Companion to Marcus Aurelius' Meditations

The Meditations of the second-century Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius is consistently one of the best-selling philosophy books among the general public. Over the years it has also attracted famous admirers, from the Prussian king Frederick the Great to US President Bill Clinton. It continues to attract large numbers of new readers, drawn to its reflections on life and death. Despite this, it is not the sort of text read much by professional philosophers or even, until recently, taken especially seriously by specialists in ancient philosophy. It is a highly personal, easily accessible, yet deceptively simple work. This volume, written by leading experts and aimed at non-specialists, examines the central philosophical ideas in the work and assesses the extent to which Marcus is committed to the philosophy of Stoicism. It also considers how we ought to read this unique work and explores its influence from its first printed publication to today.

Marcus Aurelius - Antoninus Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius (AD 121–180), philosopher-emperor, wrote the Meditations (his title was “The matters addressed to himself”) in periods of solitude during military campaigns. His ethical, religious, and existential reflections have endured as an expression of Stoicism, a text for students of that philosophy, and a guide to the moral life.

Marcus Aurelius: The Stoic Emperor - Donald J. Robertson

This novel biography brings Marcus Aurelius (121–180 CE) to life for a new generation of readers by exploring the emperor’s fascinating psychological journey. Donald J. Robertson examines Marcus’s relationships with key figures in his life, such as his mother, Domitia Lucilla, and the emperor Hadrian, as well as his Stoic tutors. He draws extensively on Marcus’s own Meditations and correspondence, and he examines the emperor’s actions as detailed in the Augustan History and other ancient texts.Marcus Aurelius struggled to reconcile his philosophy and moral values with the political pressures he faced as emperor at the height of Roman power.Robertson examines Marcus’s attitude toward slavery and the moral dilemma posed by capturing enemies in warfare; his attitude toward women; the role of Stoicism in shaping his response to the threat of civil war; the treatment of Christians under his rule; and the naming of his notorious son Commodus as his successor. Throughout, the Meditations is used to shed light on the mind of the emperor—his character, values, and motives—as Robertson skillfully weaves together Marcus’s inner journey as a philosopher with the outer events of his life as a Roman emperor.

The Stoics - Seneca, Emperor Marcus Aurelius, Epicurus

This luxurious hardback edition brings together four classic essays on Stoic philosophy from the Ancient Greek world, beautifully presented with gold embossing and stencilled page edges. Is there an answer to the question ''How does one lead a happy life?'' Certainly one ancient Greek school of philosophy believed that there was: lead a life of virtue, one in harmony with nature and do not be swayed by fortune or misfortune. First propounded by Zeno of Citium, Stoicism has resonated through the ages and, today, it seems even more pertinent as we look for ways to combat the constant bombardment of our lives by outside forces, whether they be the effects of current affairs, our work, family issues, economic problems or social pressures. Collected together in this volume are four key works that explain the key tenets of Stoicism, each one offering mindful lessons about how to face both the best and the worst things and find your path through life.Contains:• On the Shortness of Life by Seneca• Of Peace of Mind by Seneca• The Enchridion of Epictetus by Epictetus and compiled by a student, Arrian• Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
